The market is still fine to browse for me but I can't download anything no more. Comes up with location error when clicking get app.

Mines doing it to. Time to start using torbot to proxy it

Right I've just started using Twitter and just want to know is there a widget that will show Facebook posts and Twitter posts?

I use http://www.uswebproxy.com/ to login and "buy" the free app of the day on Amazon now

.

Make sure you have javascript and cookies enabled on the sites settings (click more options, untick "Remove client-side scripting (i.e JavaScript)", and tick "Allow cookies to be stored")

.

I changed my password for that Amazon account to something I don't care about someone finding out, just incase the site isn't trustworthy

I 'bought' the free app of the day just now, downloaded and installed all through the phone.

EA has released Dead Space and it looks brilliant!

I noticed 2 different prices though, on the web version of the Makret it's pricier and not compatible with any of my Droids!

Although...."Fixing" Market with Chainfire 3D it seems fine.

Edit*

Via the phone when you buy it's £4.75 inc VAT.

EA needs to sort themselves out!

mrk · 27 Dec 2011 at 17:16

Downloading as we speak

Will report back how it runs on SGSII.

Very essential information.

Game looks and runs superbly on the SII, the controls are actually very good, as good as GTA3 for fluidity and responsiveness. This is quite good!

Tweetdeck does that

I've just downloaded Contract Killers: Zombie and having great fun shooting zombies

Works well on the Note.

e36Adz · 27 Dec 2011 at 23:25

Contract Killers is good fun, download Blood and Glory NR if you haven't already, another great game on the Note. I am currently playing GTA3 and about 15 missions in, AWESOME game!

I'm not gonna bother with Dead Space or anything from EA just yet. I purchased Need for Speed during the Android sale for 10p, and it still hasn't been fixed for the Note despite tons of bad reviews and people slating them. They just don't seem bothered.

Hades · 27 Dec 2011 at 23:36

Thanks for the heads up. I'm downloading Blood and Glory NR now

I'll avoid Dead Space for a bit and see what happens.

Google Music....

mithrandir said:
Thanks for these suggestions. I will have a closer look.

double twist is absolute trash. None of my bog standard MP3s play at all (file not supported). It must be something I'm missing or need reinstalling.
The interface and gui is slick though which is a shame.

Cannot find Google music through market on the device nor my Android phone, but comes up on PC :confused:

Audiogalaxy is cool but requires your PC to be on all the time unless you pay for the download option.
